    How to get the Reliquaries pantheon?

    I’m usually playing on immortal level and for the longest time thought that Religious Settlements is by far the most coveted pantheon. You need to get lucky with religion early on to get it on Immortal level however. But it’s not impossible. Lately I have been playing with Kongo however, and it...

    Minting gold on luxury destruction.

    Winning on Deity level is still a struggle for me. But I found one way to make a lot of gold is to improve a luxury, sell it to an AI and then let a Barbarian destroy the improvement. It takes just 2 turns to restore and the AI seems to have no problem paying for the same luxury again every 10...

    Single city strategy

    I enjoyed reading the discussion about which civ is the best one. I'd be interested to hear opinions on the following question: If you could build only one city, which civ would you choose, and which victory condition would you go for?

    A.I. too much of a pushover

    I have now played a handful of Civ Rev games, one or two for each level. And it's just too easy. I won on Deity the first time I tried. And I'm certainly no Civ God. At best I'd have called myself a decent Civ player, from back in the days of Civ III. Is the A.I. equally bad on all versions...

    Online play?

    I just got Civ Rev for my iPad. I haven't played Civ for years but I had fun my first few games. But... I was a bit disappointed that there doesn't seem to be any online play. It does seem to be there for Nintendo. Also no "Game of the Week", which sounds like a nice idea. Does anyone know...

    Some beginner questions

    Being a reasonable Civ3 player I only just started to play Civ4 and have some questions that more experienced players can maybe answer. After two games I'm still often surprised by the output of certain tiles. It's probably because the number of combinations of terrains and the large number...

    Online MP

    As one of the unfortunate that have to wait until December for the game to come out, I'm interested how the game does with regards to online play. So far I haven't seen any comments on online MP. Has it improved too, or is it as lame as for Civ3? Or is everyone still busy exploring the game in...

    The number of workers needed per city.

    In many posts on this forum I've seen people express the rule of thumb that one needs (on average) a worker and a half per city. One worker when the civilization has the industrious trait. Of course this is just a rule of thumb, and as with many rules and strategies in this game, it depends...

    Trading technigues

    Recently I have played a few old COTM quick-score games to compare my play with that of some of the top-ranked players. I figured I could learn some tricks that way that are hard to learn otherwise. It turns out my play is more or less on par with the players ranked 5-15 when it comes to...

    C3C PBEM - looking for opponents

    Being new to this forum I'm trying to start more PBEM games. I'm in two that are progressing nicely, but I have time for several more. 1vs1, NvsN, everyone for himself, scenarios, you name it and I'll be happy to play. Either leave a private message here or contact me at mb_amsterdam-civ...

    Want to start a PBEM?

    Anyone in for a PBEM game of civ? I think PBEM are great, but because of their slow nature I'd like to get some moreof them going. I'm pretty flexible with regards to the game parameters, so please let me know if you're interested in a 1vs1 or multi-player game. P.S. It's got to be...
